I'll be darned...

Went to the local post office today, looked in the window, there is a new poster, a silhouette of a handgun with a red circle & a slash.
I am positive it has never been there before. I know the subject has been broached before, but dang, when it hits home. I will not ask the folks at the window why it is there, I know the employees at this 2 person station, but I will not make it an issue.
Amazing how upset I get thinking about it.

Our local post office has this sign at the counter. I looked for a sign all over at the doors and windows and saw nothing so I walked in. I got to the counter and saw the sign. And the only reason I saw it was because I was looking hard for it. It was buried, and the whole thing wasn't even visible. It's their fault for not having the sign displayed so you can see it before you walk up to the counter.

Unless you live in a 300 person town with only the U.S. postal service and no alternative-PO mailing facilities (ie, The UPS Store/MBE, FedEx/Kinkos), there's always choices. Costs a bit more, but then you get a bit more.

Actually the unincorporated town sign says approx. 1,002...
Barely large enough to have a dairy queen knock off.

Post Office is owned by a private company and has been for some years now.

Sorry, but wrong........ "The United States Postal Service® is an independent establishment of the Executive Branch of the United States Government. It operates in a businesslike way.

In the more than two centuries since USPS® began, it has grown and changed with America. Discovering the history of the Postal Service is a journey into the history of transportation, economics, industrialization, communications, and government.

Today, the Postal Service™ delivers hundreds of millions of messages each day to more than 141 million homes and businesses.

This is the story of the evolution of the Postal Service and the important role it has played in the development of the United States. "

"He went on two legs, wore clothes and was a human being, but nevertheless he was in reality a wolf of the Steppes. He had learned a good deal . . . and was a fairly clever fellow. What he had not learned, however, was this: to find contentment in himself and his own life. The cause of this apparently was that at the bottom of his heart he knew all the time (or thought he knew) that he was in reality not a man, but a wolf of the Steppes."
